This is an example of why it is “indisputably true” White House press briefings are useless. Carney knows he is lying. The press knows he is lying. But, everyone dutifully keeps a serious face and pretends serious information is being exchanged.

Well, yes, if you don’t count the U6 unemployment of around 20% and don’t extract the government spending portion of GDP that brings private sector GDP growth over the past two years to 0.3%.
Private sector doesn’t count, you know, that’s why Obama was telling college grads at the commencement exercises last year to “…go into public service”.
Bunch of leeches and parasites.
